A/N This just popped in my head today so I started typing
Disclaimer: I do not own the Outsiders, I wish I did. :( I only own two characters
so far, Mary Mathews and Jeff Huskey.
Mary Mathews
I stepped out of my house to walk to Johnny's, I was very happy. One because it was Johnny's and mine two and a half year anniversery. Two because I had just found out I was kicked off being a cheerleader. Why that made me happy you may wonder is because I hated being a cheerleader I only did it because my mom wanted me to. I hated being a preppy bimbo!
Everyone thought I would be captain, nope not me. Oh I'm Mary. Mary Matthews, I have hazel eyes, light brown hair and a good tan. I am 15. I am around 5'6'' and I have long legs they are 3'3''. My boyfriend Johnny is sixteen. Has big black eyes, and a tanned face. He has jet balck hair that is greased back and combed to one side. Except his shaggy bangs that fall on his forehead. He always has this nervous look in his eyes though. Also twice in the last year, he has gotten up by the "Soc" aka the rich kids. Only the last time the cops stopped them.
When I got to Johnny's house he was ready to go. He opened the door. "Don't come back this time boy!" I heard his dad say. Johnny looked real hurt, and he walked right past me. His dad looked at me,"What are you looking at? You SLUT!"
"Nothing just a abusive person who is a useless bum. Who also needs to get off his lazy ass and get a job!" I ran after Johnny before I could get his reaction. "What happend?" I asked.
"Nothing." he mutter.
"Johnny don't. Tell me what happend." I yelled.
"He said I was an ungrateful bastard. All because I hit him after he hit me with his whiskey bottle." John muttered.
I looked at the side of his head. It was bleeding real bad. "Come on!" I grabbed his hand and started running towards the Curtis' house. "Someone help me!" I screamed the second we walked in. Darrel came down running.
Darrel is six-feet-two, broad shouldered and very muscular. He has dark hair and his eyes are ice cold blue-green eyes. He is twenty years old, but looks a lot older. He is still very cute though. "What happend?" He asked.
"Dad," was all Johnny said and Darrel knew what he meant.
"Soda!" Darry yelled. Soda came running down. Sodapop Curtis is seventeen and the most handsomest guy I know. He is movie star handsome. He's tall as Darry, but slimmer. He has a sensitive face that somehow manages to be reckless and thoughtful at the same time. He has light brown hair . He has the most pretty blue eyes I have ever seen in my life. The can be gentle one moment and then blazing with anger and hate the next.
"Oh lordy!" Was all he said. Not too much later, Steve and Ponyboy came down. Steve Randle is seventeen, tall and lean, with thick greasy hair kept in complicated swirls. He's cocky, smart, and him and Soda have been friends for as long as I can remember. Like me he knows everything there is to know about cars. He knows them backwards, and forwards. He can drive anything on wheels.
Ponyboy Curtis (yeah that's his real name) has medium brown hair, and greenish-grey eyes. Mostly green though. He is almost exactly lime me, except he is a boy. Him and Johnny are best friends. Pony is super smart, he got moved up in grade school so me, him, and Johnny are freshman together. (Johnny flunked a grade)
"Johnny what happend?" Steve asked.
"Okay, my old man said I couldn't go out because I'm always gone. Usually I would just stay in my room but since it is mine and Mary's anniversary I told him 'No I'm going out'. So he cracks me on the head with his whiskey bottle, so I got back up and belted him back. So he calls me an ungrateful bastard. Well then Mary showed up and he told me never to come back" Johnny said in one breathe. "So then we come here and thats pretty much the story."
At about that time Dally came in. Dallas Winston has blonde hair and blue eyes that are blazing ice cold with hatred to the entire world. He was arrested at the age of ten. He is the toughest, coldest, meanest guy i know. He's wild enough to run with Tim Shepard's gang. He has a file a half a mile long wiht the fuzz. He lies, cheats, steals, rolls drunks, and jumps little kids. He's smart and you have to respect him fo that. Sometimes even I forget that he is only seventeen.
"Jesus Christ! What happend to you Johnnycake?" Johnny went over everthing again. "I'm proud of you. You finally took up for yourself" Johnny's face instantly lit up. Johnny worshiped the ground Dally walked on.
"Dallas James Winston do not you dare encourage this!" I yelled.
He gave me one of he oh so famous grins. I automatically had a bad feeling about this. When ever he did that grin something bad always happend to the person he gave it to. "Encourage what? Him taking up for himself? You'd rather him take beatings? Like the one those damn Soc gave him?" Dally said, without missing a beat.
"No but no to be a hood like" I cut myself off.
"What like me? Hey get tough like me and you don't get hurt. You look out for yourself and nothing, nothing can touch you!" he said in a matter of factly tone. I hated when he did this. Pony came in with a rag and a bowl of water.
"Yeah get tought like you and your and asshole!" I spat right back at him.
"Oh I like em fiery!" He said and put his arms around me and tried to kiss me. I pushed him away.
"Dally leave her alone she's my girlfriend!" Johnny said.
"Maybe she's right, I shouldn't encourage you," I ran out and saw my brother coming. Ah, what to say about him. Two-Bit Mathews, he is six feet tall, stocky, and very proud of his long rusty side burns. He has grey eyes and a wide grin. I swear you can't shut him up. He always has to get his two-bits in. Hences his name. His real name is Keith everyone calls him Two-Bit though. He is very proud of his swithbale. He likes fights, blondes, and school. I mean at eighteen and a half he was still in school. But now he is twenty-one and out of school thank god!
Dally came out. "Hey what's wrong?" Two-Bit asked.
"Hey Two-Bit be a pal and let me talk to your sister."
"Alright," The door opened and he went inside.
"Mary look, I get sick of Johnny having all these bruises from his old man, I think it's great that he took up for himself," Dally said. I looked at him and for the first time ever he had a soft face and his eyes were caring kind of pleading like I guess you could say.
"I know but he should just come live with me I mean my mom has already said yes. I just don't get why he doesn't come live with me." I said,
"I know he thinks there's still hope for em but they're a lost cause."
"I think you worried Johnny," I said changing the subject.
"Why do you say that?"
"Because I think that he thought that you wanted me and everyone knows Dallas Winston get everything he wants." I said with a laugh. He laughed too.
"Yeah I do get what I want don't I?" I hugged him and he kissed the top of my head. I was surprised. We went inside.
"Hey you and Dal gonna get together?" Two-Bit asked.
"No! Me, Dal, and Johnny said together.
"Hey Mary, can I talk to you?" Johnny asked. I followed him to the bathroom. I thought we would get in a quick make-out session, boy was I wrong. "Look, I've been putting this off and I hate to do it to you today, but two and a half years is a long time."
"I know, but I don't want to spend it with anyone but you," I said.
"Yeah I think we are to the point where we don't know why were together, I love you but I'm not sure if I'm IN love with you," Johnny was crying.
I started crying. "What? Johnny you don't mean that! I know you don't. What's did I do wrong? Just tell I'll change it I swear I will."
He didn't say anything. I ran up to Ponyboy's and Sodapop's room. I cried my eyes out How could he even say that he doesn't love me like that anymore. I know he does. He is dumping me to go out with another girl. There was a knock on the door. "Come in," I said. Dally came in.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you have a cancer stick?" He handed me a ciggerette. "He said he loves me but he's not in love with me anymore." I started crying. He held me in his arms. There was another knock on the door. Pony and Soda came in.
"Johnny wants to talk to you Dally," Soda said.
"Mary, he told us I think maybe he is right." Ponyboy said.d
"I'm still in love with him though," I cried. Soda and Pony hugged me.
"Clear out!" Dally was back. "Okay one month break then you guys see if you want to be back together." I nodded. "Look I like you so do you want to go out tonight? It will take your mind off of him." I nodded. He kissed me. I kissed back. "Ahem, Dal I would like to talk to my sister...alone." Dally got up and left.
"I just wanted to tell you be careful and think about Johnny." He hugged me. I walked out. "Are you ready?" Dally asked. I nodded.
We got in his car and left. We went to the Dingo and got a few cokes. I was standing by bar. Dally was talking to some guys and completly ignoring me. "Hey, do you want another coke?" A guy asked me.
"No! I'm good" I hated it when guys tried to hit on me.
"Okay, Mary," the guy said.
I looked at him. "JEFF!" I screamed. I jumped on him and hugged him. I noticed he was wearing the necklace I gave him before he moved. "What are you doing here?"
"We moved back," Jeff Huskey, has blonde hair and green eyes. He is 17 and we liked each other one year ago before he moved but me and Johnny were together. "So you and Johnny together? If I remember correctly today should be your two and half?"
"Actually we broke up today." I said.
"Jeff?" Dally asked.
"Yeah, Hey Dal how you doing?"
"Good. Mar we've been gone for a few hours we should get back."
"Okay," I hugged Jeff. "Come see me tomorrow I'll be at Ponyboy's more than likely."
Dally and I walked out to his car. We drove home, when we were in the car he pulled me into a kiss and I kissed back. I pulled away. "We should go inside." We got out and went inside. I sat down and I kept trying to make eye contact with him but he wouldn't look at me, "Johnny can we talk?" He followed me to the bathroom.
"I want to get back with you. Being with Dally was wierd. Also I saw Jeff Huskey and it reminded me of how much love you and always will."
"The only reason I did it was because I thought you like Dally," he admitted.
"I do, but I love you. Go get Dal for me I need to talk to him." Johnny left and a few seconds later Dally was in there with me. "Me and Johnny are back together."
He looked hurt for a few seconds, then happy, "Okay, good Johnny loves you...a lot." We walked back out to the living room and I sat down next to Johnny. "So the world's greatest couple is back together!" He announced.
"Happy 2 and a half years." Johnny whispered in my ear. "I love you,"
"I love you, too." I said back. "OH guess who I saw at the Dingo."
"Who?" Ponyboy asked.
"Jeff Huskey."
"Really how is he?"
"Good I told him to come over here tomorrow so you guys could see him"
"Mary, I'm sorry for putting you through all the pain I did today," Johnny said.
"Aw, how sweet," Soda said. He always made fun of us. I kissed Johnny. We started making out. We had a tendancy to do that a lot.
"Ya know there are bedrooms upstairs," Darry said.
Johnny and I walked upstairs, and went to "bed".
